OOTD: The Good Life

Hey Guys! I realise that I haven't done an outfit post for ages so I've got one for you today.

I'm not 100% where I was going with this outfit, just experimenting i think! It's a little out there for me but it's kinda cute! I love oversized tees and almost always pull them in with a belt of some kind!

This one was sent to me by The Good Life Clothing. I love their name, whenever I think about it, it makes me think about what makes my life good :) It's also black and white which is somthing else I love about it. Also how cute is my necklace?! Pineapples are such pretty fruits.

Today Andrew and myself went to Lakeside... again yes haha. I'm loving Primark even more than usual at the moment, O got another new tee in there, leopard print of course and I got an oh my love skirt for £1.20 from Topshop.. bargain much?! It was in the sale from £40 down to £5 and I had the leftovers of an old voucher so that was great. We had nandos for lunch and then came home and watched come dine with me. I love shopping with my boyfriend.

LIFESTYLE: Thursday Madness

well I certainly had a bit of a crazy one on Thursday! Let me talk you though it

I started off at aldgate east doing a photoshoot for Elisha Francis who i walked for at High Street Fashion week! You might have seen a cheeky snap shot of the images if you follow my instagram but I'm super excited to see them finished and photoshopped! The jewellery this time was huge and really amazing, mostly made out of thick rope. The theme was warrior princess so I had dark smudged eyes, big crazy hair and a nude lip. 

This, let me explain is why I look like a nutter in the images you are about to see of me! I left the photoshoot in a rush to make the House of Fraser press day which was taking place in Baker Street so only took of the crazy eye make up but in hindsight I can see that I probably would have been better going completely bare faced rather than trying to fix what we had and on top of this, it was pouring!

Ok, so I got to the press day and had a quick look around, the one thing that I was drawn to in each section was the bags, they were amazing! BIBA have a great range of very classy looking shapes and materials whilst elsewhere I saw cute fun ones.
 Still in a rush but cleverly planned I met my friend Georgia for dinner.. Wagamamas on Baker Street, clever right? It was lovely to see her again after a few months and hearing all her crazy uni stories, and wow does she have some stories, I better not say anything here tho hahah. We both got out Katsu curries and green tea and sat there for ages afterwards chatting! Now comes the spontanious part. We popped back down the road to meet the House of Fraser team for a cocktail, I was tired but Georgia wanted to go so we went down and I'm so glad we did! We both had the best time.

We spend the next couple of hours with the team making our own cocktails and getting quite drunk! Me and Georgia then moved on to Carnaby street where Style Noir were having their magazine launch party at Movida. After a lovely chat with Jaime outsite the club we went in and were greeted with yet more free cocktails, another goodie bag and crazy busy nightclub. Im not sure if any of you saw my tweets that night.. uhho haha

Thankyou to everyone to I've mentioned for adding towards making my thursday totally amazing!!

LIFESTYLE: Pretty Flowers For My Room

I love having a pretty bunch of flowers in my bedroom, it brightens up the place, smells lovely and just makes me happy and every girls love coming opening the front door to a bunch of flowers! So when the Great British Florist offered to send me a bunch for review I instantly said yes please!

The company were so easy going and very helpful with delivery. They offered to send them next which was great but I realised I would be out over the weekend and would miss the best few days of the flowers, so they suggested delievering them fresh on Tuesday, that way they wouldn't have to be sat at the post office over the weekend!

I was greeted with a beautiful, colourful "British Bouquet" and they got better each day, there were wondreful lillies that opened over the next few days, I love watching flowers grow and change! 

Flowers would make a wonderful gift for anyone

LIFESTYLE & OOTD - TK Maxx

A few weeks ago, after college, I made my way down to Leicester Square for another couple of bloggery things! I'm so happy with how far blogging has taken me, all the fun opportunities it has made for me!

After heading to a few press days I moved on to the TK Maxx on Charing Cross Road (I've walked past it literally hundreds of times but still managed to get lost) for a silent dico event! I'm not sure if this is a well known thing or just a uni student thing but basically everyone listens to music through headphones so no one else knows whats going on, it does look quite odd from the outside. (See Video Below.)

I haven't been to one in ages and this was even better, I got to go shopping at the same time! I spent forever deciding what I was going to buy, would it be the crochet crop top or the leather look skater dress? Well I ended up having the DJ ask the crowd who then talked me into doing a catwalk for them hahaha. The guys were great, clapping and cheering, they made it a really fun and relaxed event. I ended up being given a £50 gift card and buying both with money still to spare. woo!

TK Maxx were great, and it was a really fun event, so thankyou!

Heres an OOTD that I took shortly after (when the sun was actually shining for that one week) with the outfit I catwalked at the event.
Top - TK Maxx (Bought with voucher)
Skirt - H&M
Converse
Sunglasses- Primark

 And heres some photos and a video from the night!

Also, I have just put a few things up on EBAY if anyone is interested!

iamVibes

Hey guys, writing one of my first ever hungover blog posts today haha I had such a good day yesterday, three blogger events, one photoshoot and dinner with one of my best friends who was down from uni! I'll do a post all about it next week.

Here I'm wearing a bodysuit from iamVibes. They are a new brand on the scene and they have taken over. I love the whole hamsa hand thing, its just very spiritual and chilled. It's that kinda stuff that girls wear without bottoms and guys wear with super skinny jeans. I wanted to encorporate this into my photo, after seeing my blogger friend Leanne wear it on its own I thought I might take a chance and try. I'm not one for covereing up although I cover up enought that i am comfortable with, I was a bit weary of putting some of these images online, but I liked it so I did.

Moving on to todays events, I'm staying in relaxing today and tonight I'm going to my favourite resturant ever with Andrew, I've posted about Gilgamesh before and how much I love it there so it was a lovely suprise when Andrew suggested we go there for dinner tonight!

Body - iamVibes*
Shorts - H&M
Flowers - Primark

Oh I Do Like To Be Beside The Seaside

I know this outfit is a bit inappropriate for todays wind and rain but that dosen't matter becuase these photos were taken on sunday for a trip to the beach. 

Well it was Southend, it's hardly a beach but I still had the best day ever. While my dad took my gran dress shopping, he gave us some money and me and the boys went off down to the arcades.  I haven't yet showcased my aracde skills on my blog. This is my favourite place in the world, I could spend hours in there and a regualrly do! With £5 and 45 minutes I managed to win myself 12 keyrings! not bad not bad. 

Heres my new primark top making its debut with my perfect Missguided dungarees. I wore "the school belt" and creepers and my new mirror unicorn (Carousel Horse) necklace to finish it off. 

Anything that is kinda horse shaped, I automatically refer to it as a unicron. My friend has a giant camel in his back graden, I call that a unicorn

What I Wore:
Sunglasses - D&G
Dungarees - Missguided*
Boyfriend Tee - Primark
Belt - Brothers
Arm Candy - Popband*
Necklace - Claire M Designs*
Creepers - Fashion Union*
Me & The Unicorn/Camel
Dress from Jones+Jones

I Want To Be A Full Time Model!

Last week I did a photoshoot with the wonderful Helen from Helen's Wardrobe at the most amazing location, it was so perfect for the shoot. An old derelict pool with little changing room huts all around the outside with pretty coloured doors!

So heres how the story goes... (Taken from Helens Blog)

Once upon a time in an abandoned motel by an empty pool, 
a beautiful stranger waits for her lover to return.
 As the days come and go she waits and waits, 
is he ever coming back?…

I have worked with Helen before but this time it was bigger and better, we had a whole team as well as Molly the dog on the case, with hair, makeup, props, behind the scenes and then Allan and Andrew there for moral support.

I am so pleased with the outcome. What do you think?
The Team :)
Styling & Photos - Helen S Stanley
Hair & Make-Up - Allison Boyd
Props - Jessica Speller
Behind The Scenes - Stephen Turner

If anyone is ever looking for a model I'd be more than happy to chat about it, doing this is somthing I really enjoy and I would love to be full time!

Also, I have just put a few things up on EBAY if anyone is interested!
